Siri isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Montgomery earned the save in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Mets, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.

With Jacob Latz unavailable after throwing 1.2 innings Wednesday, it was Montgomery who was called upon to close out the game Thursday. The southpaw was sharp, retiring the side on just eight pitches, as he logged his first save of the season and just the second in his major-league career. Since returning from the IL in August, Montgomery's posted a 4.63 ERA with a 1.03 WHIP and 17:6 K:BB over 23.1 innings.

The Angels placed Joyce on the 15-day injured list Thursday, retroactive to Sept. 21, due to right shoulder impingement.

With the injury, Joyce finishes the season with a 4.11 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, five saves and three blown saves in 15.1 innings across 16 games. The Angels recalled Trevor Martin from Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding move Thursday.

Rocker (6-11) earned the win Thursday over the Mets, allowing a run on three hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out four.

Rocker's pitch count was limited again, though he managed to qualify for the win Thursday, as he efficiently made it through five innings with just 74 pitches. Despite the reduced workload, Rocker finished the regular season on a high note, holding opponents to just three runs on eight hits across 13.1 innings in his final three outings. Overall, the 26-year-old Rocker posted a 4.38 ERA with a 1.41 WHIP and 138:61 K:BB in 148 innings this season.

Mullins isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Yankees, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

Mullins will get a chance to rest his legs during Thursday's series finale after going 1-for-4 with a solo homer during Wednesday's contest. Jonny DeLuca will take over in center field and bat sixth.

Aranda isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Yankees, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

After going 1-for-8 with four strikeouts over the first three games of the series, Aranda will grab a seat on the bench to begin Thursday's finale. Ryan Vilade will fill in at first base and bat eighth.

Jones isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rays.

Jones will grab a seat on the bench to begin Thursday's series finale after going 2-for-11 with a walk, a run scored and a steal against the Rays over his last three games. Jose Caballero will start in center field as a result and bat ninth.

Chisholm isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rays.

Chisholm has gone 2-for-6 with two walks, a run and a steal across his first two games since returning from the injured list, and the Yankees will now give him a day to rest as they prepare to face left-hander Ian Seymour. Anthony Volpe will get the nod at second base and bat seventh.

The Mariners recalled Rivas from Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.

Rivas will give the Mariners some additional infield depth following the injury to Brock Rodden (knee). The 28-year-old Rivas has a steady glove but has been woeful offensively during his time with the Mariners this season, slashing .147/.270/.190 in 47 games.

The Mariners placed Rodden on the 10-day injured list Thursday with left patella tendon inflammation.

It's unclear how long Rodden's knee has been bothering him, but the injury will prematurely end the infielder's season. He'll finish with a lowly .197/.306/.279 batting line with zero home runs and zero stolen bases in 30 contests for the Mariners.
